Title: pied noir
Post by: vqdave on June 22, 2006, 09:57:43 am
having spent the weekend like an idiot in open toed shoes i had developed a condition i believe the french call PIED NOIR. I scrubbed furiously in my hotel in Rouen Sunday night and every day since but with no real result.
Step from the shower today and finally the old feet are back to their original colour. I believe i am finally clean. ;D

I thought I'd come back with a tan, but most of it ended up on the floor of my bath once I'd got out of the shower :(

Don't you know you should always wash your hands before eating campfire/barbeque food cooked by others?
Well it's worth a try, it is a certainty they won't have washed theirs...
Hope you get well soon.
